Sp2 are easy to find and I get most of mine used. Usually make 2-3 trips a year to Indy buy 20 at a time, take 3 for my self and sell the rest to racers to offset the cost. I bought 3 new tires this year and couldn't tell a difference.... :)

Here in Florida I buy 2 RR in Feb and that will last me 20 races...still have 1/2 thread on them (SP2)

My American Racers last around 12-15 races. I run a 33 compound. Usually has quite a bit of tread left but the durometer will climb to high from heat cycles to justify keeping them on there. I like the American Racer prices is the main deal.

Plus customer service from American is 2nd to none. Tony Rose even cut ours for us..

Even through heat cycles they (Hoosiers) stay the same....40-41...after 10 races

Re: Central region Lightning / Mini sprint meeting
 

Guys want room to "tinker" in racing, do things they think will give them an advantage. I think a predominately stock engine package, with room on injection, oil pan and system would do that. If they want a quick change let them have it...

Can I have my Echo tec?

Right now I am thinking that I might start working on an Esslinger.
